  • Case Study: Providing Orkdal Municipality in Norway a Unified Bas Interface
    CASE STUDY: PROVIDING ORKDAL MUNICIPALITY IN NORWAY A UNIFIED BAS INTERFACE METASYS INTEGRATION WITH S-E SMARTSTRUXURE AND BACNET: N2 ROUTER ABOUT THE CUSTOMER Schneider Electric Norway had a very successful project last year. Using the value proposition of the S4 Open:BACnet- N2 Router, and the case study created for that earlier project, they leveraged their success to win another energy performance contracting project for the public buildings, schools, and nursing homes within the Orkdal municipality. Orkdal municipality in Sør-Trøndelag County, 40 km from Norway’s 3rd largest city Trondheim, has a population of 11,906 people. Orkdal was established as a municipality on 1 January 1838 . On 1 July 1920, the port of Orkanger (population: 1,715) and the southern district of Orkland (population: 1,760) were separated from Orkdal to form separate municipalities. On 1 January 1963, the municipalities of Orkanger, Orkland, and Geistadt were merged with Orkdal to form a new, larger municipality of Orkdal. Joran Bugten, Service Engineer working on the project reported, “After the first one, this project became a lot easier. I could use my experience on this, and we solved it with more efficiency, less working hours also.” Project Requirements A primary requirement was to deliver a uniform Building Management System for all the public buildings in the municipality in order to improve operational efficiency through uniform training and procedures for all municipal buildings. Consistency and ease of operation help generate energy savings - which was the primary goal for the overall project. Automation and energy management and monitoring technology, along with the requisite training and support services, were required to maximize energy savings Two of the municipality’s buildings contained legacy JCI Metasys® systems and were included in this project phase.
